¿KnowíStill all these data about the Airbus A380?
Hello there
There is a detail that is worth highlighting; no US airline purchased this model.
JIMMY
US airlines have another way of operating, prefer more frequencies, that fewer flights with a very large plane.
Buenas tardes:
This model arrived late to the ring.
How do you say “The one who hits first, hits twice” and there's the Boeing 747 to verify this statement.
Personally, he is more iconic 747 than the A380
Greetings
JIMMY
Of course, the 747 changed the way of flying many years ago, that makes it unique.
Without a doubt an iconic plane in aviation, the A380 is almost as old as me since its first commercial flight and the truth is that since I was a child I admired this beautiful plane and I swear that one day, even if it's on his last commercial flight i'll get to go with my brother on a trip on the upper deck. Good post, there were a lot of data, I am amazed at what he has achieved, without a doubt it will go down in aviation history.
